The Ruins of Memory: Women’s Voices of the Holocaust

Adapted and Directed by Laura Ferri

The Ruins of Memory, highlights the WWII stories of women of all ages, featuring selections from fiction, poetry and oral histories primarily by and/or about female survivors and victims from both Ashkenazi and Sephardic communities. Combining live music, sound and movement with spoken word and song, the performance piece captures emotional snapshots of the time, delineating the mounting tension and fear that swept throughout Europe as Jews were led inexorably to their fates.
